Hey all. I'm going to take my tech exam on Thursday. I'm not sure if i'll be ready to take the element 1 by then or not (probably not) but i'm getting there. I'm doing 5wpm now...a few mistakes still but my accuracy is improving.

I have question for some of you experienced with code. When learning the procedural signs "Break" & "End Of message" is it best to translate them as the letters OR the = and + symbols? Since I've started translating the other signs as the letters SK and KN I wanted to make sure that I learn a correct method so that I don't have to re-teach myself.

Can Anyone assist?

    I think that either would be acceptable when you take the test. If you use AR, BT, etc., put a bar over the two letters, and the examiner will be clear on what you intended.
